Aedan O'Shea | Research Master in Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience | Specialisation Drug Development and Neurohealth

My extra mile in health: "Doing as much clinical research as possible in Psychedelics or other perception-altering compounds"

This programme is preparing us for a career in academic and industry research, specifically in developing new drugs and treatments for diseases which affect the brain. I have a particular interest in treating diseases or disorders that affect perception, such as schizophrenia and other psychosis. I have a great interest in consciousness itself and its function, so changes to it fascinate me.
